Estate Announcement About King of Pop's Birthday: We Are One
This year, the King of Pop Estate has organized the first major global celebration, "We Are One," in Michael's honor.
Michael Jackson's birthday falls on a Thursday this year. On Thursdays, the show "Michael Jackson ONE" normally does not perform in Las Vegas, but this particular Thursday will feature a special performance in honor of Michael Jackson's birthday. However, many of Michael's fans around the world will certainly not be able to attend this special show. The Michael Jackson Estate has launched a special website at birthday.michaeljackson.com, which will go live at 12:01 AM on Thursday. Fans can share their Instagram photos and videos on this page using the hashtag #MJWeAreOne and become part of the Michael Jackson Birthday Global Map.
The Estate's statement reads:
Michael Jackson believed that all people, regardless of their race and culture, are unique and equal, and that unity and solidarity create a better world. His message was one of unity, harmony, and hope. What better way to celebrate his birthday than to spread his message and share a short video of hope for a better world.
This global event begins in the first time zones (Kiribati and New Zealand) and sweeps across the world, ending at midnight Thursday in the last time zones (Hawaii and Samoa). Fans have 24 hours to upload their Instagram photos and videos celebrating Michael Jackson's birthday with a message of hope for the world. On this day, a global map of Michael Jackson unity — filled with photos and videos from fans of the King of Pop — will take shape around the world. Fans can share their ideas and wishes for a better world. #MJWeAreOne will be a true global community.
Since Michael Jackson was a multidimensional artist who strived to blend different musical styles and art forms, "ONE" is a fitting title for an immersive journey into the creative world of the King of Pop — a genius, a visionary, and a singular force. But this title was chosen for the Las Vegas shows also because it expressed Michael's philosophy of love, hope, and peace: We are one.
